I was at apuritansmind.com and on the recommended reading list Matthew recommended the sermons of Samuel Davies. Who was this preacher and where can I get samplings of his sermons?

He was a godly early American Presbyterian minister from Virginia, as well as a President of Princeton College. Here are a few links to his sermons and bio:

Lloyd-Jones was a great admirer of his.
Can you give me a source for this?

Some years ago the late Dr Martyn Lloyd-Jones said to an audience in the United States, 'You Americans do not know one of your greatest preachers'. He then pronounced a name almost unknown — the name, 'Samuel Davies'. Unhappily, we Americans still do not know one of our greatest preachers. Graduates of the finest seminaries in our land have not so much as heard of Samuel Davies. This is certainly not universally true, but those who have become aquainted with this man have found reason to agree with Dr Lloyd-Jones. Davies is indeed one of America's greatest preachers.
